Book 19: After Ever After
Wow, I am BEHIND! Who knew that summer would be busier than the school year! I gotta get going!!!
After Ever After by Jordan Sonnenblick
Jeffrey Alpers has a lot on his plate: he's starting his eighth grade year, a new (hot) girl named Lindsey has moved to town, his brother has left suddenly to "find himself" in Africa, and there's a new high-stakes state test coming up that will determine if he goes to high school. It would be a lot of pressure for any kid, but for Jeffrey, a state test is even harder since his chemotherapy treatments affected his brain. Together he and his best friend Tad (also a cancer survivor) will push each other to do things they've never done before, and ultimately, face challenges that will change them forever.
